Mastercard Teams Up With Hi To Bring CryptoPunks BAYC NFT Themed Cards

Say Hi to the world’s first-ever customizable NFT debit card. Mastercard, the world’s largest credit and debit card provider, alongside Visa, has joined forces with Hi, a crypto-centric bank with 3.5 million active customers despite minimal advertising, to bring a fresh wave of excitement to the crypto community.

Blue Chip NFTs to Dress the New Cards

Naturally, the funds held in the NFT-glossed card can be spent in a variety of ways, and will support both crypto and fiat currencies, including most popular stablecoins. Co-Founder of Hi Sean Rach is confident that the groundbreaking NFT card will be appreciated by customers: “The flexibility to spend fiat, stablecoins or other crypto, combined with attractive financial and lifestyle rewards, makes us confident that our card is a game-changer in the market.”
